Moldova · 1-DAY TOURS
Everything Moldova can show you between breakfast and dinner: a cellar, a cliff church, a fortress or a crossing east. The 8 below are priced with their driving times and lunch arrangements spelled out.
A full-day trip in Transnistria with Bendery Fortress, Soviet-era sights in Bender and Tiraspol, and a warm family-style lunch with wine.
“Very interesting trip to an area that has own currency, government within Moldova. It would be nicer to have the tour guide at the start of travel. It's a good time to meet others during the trip.”
Small-group Transnistria day trip from Chisinau to Bender and Tiraspol, with forts, Soviet stops, placinta lessons, and homemade wine.
“I chose this trip as it seemed the smallest and most personal one and I was not wrong. Transport was with justs two others and very comfortable. Nicolas a great driver and had a lot of info to share. In Tiraspol we met Tatiana and she took us to all major sites while providing lots of info. For me the highlight was lunch at her families' place with the most amazing food, wine and animals. Bender fortress was interesting even though we were so tired by then. Thank you to all and especially Tatiana's family. Give a cuddle to Kappa.”
Iasi to Chisinau and Cricova Winery in one day: Capriana Monastery, city sights, and a 50-80m underground wine tasting.
“Leonard is a nice guide with broad knowledge. It took us where we wanted and everything went well.”
Chisinau day trip to Curchi Monastery, Old Orhei ruins, and optional Cricova wine tasting, with pickup and entrance fees.

One day in Moldova: Cricova underground wine tour plus Tiraspol and Bender Fortress in Transnistria, with pickup, lunch, and tasting.
“Me and my wife (we are a couple from Sweden, 55+) visited Chisinau in Moldova for a long week-end by the end of May 2019. "BestMoldova" was the local tour agency that organised this tour. Without to many details and word, they simply have done an EXCELLENT job! All was perfect, the flexibility to try to help us due to our delayed flight, the high knowledge of all guides, drivers, the warm hearts, the genuine spirit. And speaking about the tours, very interesting to visit Bender and Tirasopol in Transnistria, to hear and feel on my own this complicated part of Europe, the wine testing at Cricova was very good,…”
Underground wine at Milestii Mici, then Tiraspol and Bender Fortress in Transnistria, with pickup, lunch, and guided tastings.
“Had a fantastic day on this tour learning about Moldovan wine and history. Both guides were super knowledgeable, friendly and allowed plenty of time to see the sights along the way. The winery is astonishing and the wine tasting was a very pleasant experience. Visiting Transnistria was incredible and a bit scary border crossings! at the same time, although the guys from BestMoldova got us through without any problems. The whole experience from start to finish was flawless and the transport was modern and comfortable. Thanks very much BestMoldova.”
Chisinau walking tour plus a Soviet themed Transnistria trip to Tiraspol and key monuments, with guided stops and transfers.
“The place is spectacular, very clean and the history is fascinating. The agency is spectacular and Guide Tatiane knows a lot about history.Auto-translated”
Taste wines in Moldova’s most famous cellars, with free admission and English pickup, visiting Cricova and Mileștii Mici in one day.
“Had a great tour! It was nice to visit both since Melestii Mici is the more famous location but Cricova is actually more beautiful and has better wine. Don't forget a jacket! It gets cold in the tunnels.”
Cellars, cliff churches, the capital and the far bank of the Dniester.
